Default Door Lamps

OK, so I did this myself a few weeks ago and it took some prying. They do not come out as easily as I thought. The best bet...carefully (disclaimer) take a flat head screwdriver and slide it between the bottom of the plastic cover and the door skin. It will take a little more force then you are expecting for it to pop up. Now, I was not able to actual remove it completely, however I was able to hold the plastic cover up, slide my fingers in to remove the bulb and replace it.

Good luck!
